1. I can attest as a teacher..
..it's gotten much worse in the past four years. Granted the kids have become better word callers, but they don't understand. They don't understand.

That's what education has become...The 'test' is all that matters.

if it is not on the test don't teach it is what we are constantly told. I also pay about 500 bucks out of pocket for supplies and now have learned that bush stopped the tax credit for teaching supplies

I've a friend who teaches handicapped kids in an inner city. She could write a book. She spends a fortune on buying supplies as well as items like clothing for her kids.
